Meeting 12th October

How is everyone going with Hobart 26m shifts currently, are people confused as to what back-ends should be being used or is that information getting conveyed properly?

Hopefully number of backends will be consolidated down to only two. MKV being retired.

Before starting any shift, check emails to make sure no specific information has been sent to you.

Isn't LBA 2017OCT session soon?

No LBA observing due until next year!

Cont17 roster - Nov 28 - Dec 12.

Ellen! Start the rostering!

3 stations, two different schedules

Check roster as shift times may be changed.

Emails not getting sent through

Jamie has now fixed this issue, so the IVS ops email lists are correctly updated now.

Handover Issues:

Ho: Vacuum pressure leak for receiver cooling system (AUA029)

Fixed! Caused by the weather warming.

Ke: Mick changed disk in middle of recording, was the mystery disk that was originally being recorded to every identified? (R4811)

This was sorted, thanks to Warren.

Make sure to check module allocation sheet.

Yg: Pointing offsets/tracking errors, Note from Arwin in handover notes: “During setup, noticed yg had large offsets in the antenna checks, had to the the pointing checks again and the offsets were better the second time around. This has happened a few times, should this be raised at the meeting?”
